Hey,
Just got my rego bill and wanted to see who the cheapest CTP was. Turns out they all cost the same in my case, but I did notice that both Suncorp and QBE have offers going if you switch to them. I was already with Suncorp, so I switched to QBE.
Link to compare the four: https://maic.qld.gov.au/ctp-calculator-results
The online form for QBE was really simple, about 5 or so fields. For eligible people in some post codes (as suggested by randoom) you may be able to get a $50 giftcard. Direct link: https://switch.qbe.com.au/
Their only conditions I could see are:
1. "When you next renew your registration for twelve (12) months"
2. Switch from another provider
3. Car registered in QLD
4. Be over 30
The gift card has a few conditions:
The XSWestfield Gift Card may be used for purchases across Australia at the large number of retailers with EFTPOS facilities; it is not limited to Westfield centres. However some retailers may choose not to accept these Gift Cards, card terms and examples listed below*.
*The XS Westfield gift card cannot be redeemed for cash, reloaded or refunded. Use of the XS Westfield Gift Card is subject to the XS Westfield Gift Card conditions which are available at westfield.com.au/giftcards. Some retailers do not accept this card, including but not limited to: Myer, Coles Express, Shell Service Stations, Event Cinemas, Hoyts Cinemas and Village Cinemas.
As for Suncorp the form is a bit longer, but its worth $30, which if you wanted to you can instead donate it to YoungCare.

The only conditions (haven't gone through the process so check it before you commit) I can see are:
1. Switch from another provider
2. Car registered in QLD
3. Further conditions may apply i.e like in the deal Pommycol posted a while back: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/252613
4. Check the fine print because I didn't go through the process
I believe you can do the form now and when you pay your rego later they'll send it out - they mention this at the end of the process. I'm going to wait a bit longer to pay the rego in case they have some back office paper pushing to make it happen (its not due for another month anyway).
Enjoy
dang, they dropped it
was 50 last time
